TCA peels in the appropriate percentage (strength) and done with correct technique, can improve fine lines and can tighten the skin in the under eye area. There will be some downtime including redness, swelling and crusting, the severity of which will depend on the strength of the peel and the individual condition and skin type. I recommend you consult with a board-certified dermatologist or facial plastic surgeon experienced in using TCA to avoid any unwanted side effects.
